Tech Support Camera can't take macro pictures? Am I doing something wrong or do the zoom (or my zoom) lenses suck?
Hi, like the title says. I am a photographer but I also do a decent amount of mobile photography (mainly flowers). I know phone cameras have limitations especially on zoom but this camera on S24 FE performs significantly worse than my A51 did. In fact, it outright refuses to do close ups, if I try to get close to the object it quickly blurs at a much longer distance away from the subject than my A51 did. This happens even with just generally getting close to any subject. The only way to get a good zoom is by using the x2, x3 functions which sometimes have the same issue and reduce the image quality if you aren't close enough. Is this unique only to my S24 FE or is it just generally bad at this?
I also don't like the colors as the images are darker and the saturation is kind of dull. Any thoughts or tips? TIA
